Maternity leave replacement - Kindergarten class teacher at Nordstjerneskolen

Are you passionate about creating the best start to school life for children? Are you a trained pedagogue, and motivated by working in a strong professional community with a focus on well-being, learning and development? Then we may have the position for you.

We are seeking an engaged and relationship-building pedagogue for a maternity-leave temporary position as kindergarten class leader at Nordstjerneskolen from 1 December 2026 to 1 December 2027.

A strong pedagogical community in the primary years

At Nordstjerneskolen we work purposefully to create a safe, structured and developmentally meaningful start to school for all children.

As a kindergarten class leader you will be a central part of the primary years and participate in close and professional collaboration with teachers and pedagogues around the children’s well-being, learning and development. We work with co-teaching as an integrated part of our practice, where pedagogical and didactic competences are actively brought into play together.

We focus on play, learning and opportunities for participation for all children. At the same time we work systematically with clear frameworks, predictability and strong relationships that support the children’s development and the opportunity to succeed in the community.

Our pedagogical approach is based on the understanding that children learn through participation, community and meaningful activities. Nature, movement as well as project- and scenario-based learning experiences are therefore a natural part of everyday life.

What can you expect?

We offer

• A strong professional and pedagogical environment with engaged colleagues.
• Management/leadership that prioritizes development, quality and well-being.

• Has an eye for both the individual child’s well-being and the importance of the community.
• Can create structure, calm and predictability in daily life.
• Thrives in close team collaboration characterized by professional sparring, shared responsibility and high ambitions.
• Sees potential in all children and works inclusively in practice.
